The config(8) man page reads:
The old -g flag is deprecated and no longer supported. Instead, add
``makeoptions DEBUG="-g"'' to the kernel configuration file, along
with (typically) ``options KGDB''.
(1) bug? It should be ``option KGDB'' rather than ``options''
(2) Also, would it be better to point the user to uncomment the existing
#makeoptions DEBUG="-g"
line in the include'd /src/sys/conf/GENERIC file? -or does it not
matter?
(3) Lastly, would it be worthwhile to added a commented out
#option KGDB
to the /src/sys/conf/GENERIC file?
Let me know what you want and I'll send the patch(es).
